Brüder, lasst uns lustig sein
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): FRE NOR
Brüder, lasst uns lustig sein,
trotzet wacker den Beschwerden,
denkt, es ist der Fluch der Erden:
Jeder Mensch hat seine Pein.
Lasst uns singen, lasst uns lachen,
kann mans doch nicht anders machen.
Welt und Not ist einerlei,
keiner bleibt von Plagen frei.

Brødre, la oss være glade
Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)  after the German (Deutsch)
Brødre, la oss være glade,
og tappert trosse plagene.
Tenk -- det er jordens forbannelse
at ethvert menneske har sin plage.
La oss synge, la oss le,
man kan dog ikke gjøre annet!
Verden og nøden er samme sak,
ingen slipper fri for sin plage.
